Aaron's X-bow is a fun and action-packed entry in the Nexo Knights lineup. This set perfectly encapsulates the theme's blend of futuristic technology and medieval fantasy, offering a unique and visually appealing model.

This set is perfect for Nexo Knights enthusiasts and younger builders. With a moderate piece count and engaging play features, it provides a satisfying building experience without being overly complex.

Investment Grade

⏳ Retired

Aaron's X-bow, while a decent set from the Nexo Knights theme, presents a moderate investment opportunity. The Nexo Knights theme has a dedicated fan base, but its overall popularity is less than themes like Star Wars or Marvel. The set's piece count and original MSRP are reasonable, but its long-term value will depend on the continued interest in the Nexo Knights IP. Given its retired status, the price may increase modestly over time, especially for sealed copies. However, don't expect significant returns compared to more sought-after LEGO themes.
